United Kingdom
Nant Y Croi Farm is a delightful working farm, perched on the cliffs near Ferwig and a short walk to the excellent Mwnt Beach, Cardigan. Not only is the location breath taking, it is run by Gordon and Mary Thomas who are nothing short of lovely and excellent hosts. They run a camping, B&B and self-catering business.
3 urbanites from London, we went for the option of roughing it in a tent. Hot showers, toilets are in the field (so not that rough) and up at the farmhouse, fridge & freezers, a sink to wash up are available for free (washing machines too at a small cost) you can even order some local meat to BBQ, and borrow a BBQ too if you came as badly prepared as we did.
You are made to feel very welcome by Gordon who does the rounds of the site on his quad bike, ensuring you have all you need for; local info and some quality banter thrown in to boot. It was an incredibly relaxed weekend. Nothing is too much trouble, we arrived at a 2am after a long drive from London, which wasn't a problem at all, we could arrive when we wanted to & pitch where we wanted to. On waking up the next morning we were welcomed by a stupendous view of the sea over the hedge at the bottom of the field.
It is a family orientated place too, with donkeys to entertain the kids. The simplicity, friendliness of the hosts and out-standing natural beauty makes this a rather special place to stay which I would recommend to anyone. There is the quaint town of Cardingan nearby, and the lovely beaches, Mwnt, Tresaith, Penbryn, to name a small handful. Most cars had not only the odd child strapped to the roof, but bikes, kayaks, kites etc...the area is for the outward bound and there is no end of sport available on dry land and the sea to keep you entertained and exhausted all weekend.
So, if you are looking for an un-commercial site, with the basics, views that money can't buy and splendid hospitality in an uncrowded field, look no further than Nan Y Croi Farm.
